Honeycomb Alpha Flight Control Available $249.99

Hey - so I know a lot of people who are into flight simulators were looking for this Flight Yoke from Honeycomb. I saw that it is now in stock in a few different sites.
The price is MSRP, but right now it's so hard to find that I'd still say it's something to jump on when available. Hopefully this helps someone out there who wants to get flying!

Note: Other sites like Adorama/Sporty's/B&H have been taking orders but all of them are back ordered until December. I'd say if you have orders in for those already, try to see if you can get an order confirmation on these sites and then cancel those orders.

Honeycomb Official Site:

Gleim Aviation: <- Gleim is reputable with flight school ground training
https://www.gleimaviation.com/sho...honeycomb/

XforcePC: <-- The owner of this company is best friends with the creator of XPlane 11.
I actually bought from them yesterday evening and it shipped out this morning.

Thanks!

Thank you. I've been looking for a while - since my CH yoke broke - and this thing has simply been mostly out of stock for some time. So I snagged one this morning and it's already been tendered.

If you notice the throttle quadrant back in stock, please post that too!

Lack of charging tax makes it a wash.

Yeah as spunky said, Gleim XforcePC don't charge Tax on their orders.

For $250, a 7% tax rate = $17.5 which is about as much as the shipping is for either of those two sites.
On Honeycomb's own website it was around ~$7 and no tax, but they sold out after a few hours.
Newegg had it for around 30 minutes today, but that's long gone - and MS hasn't had it since around 10/5, so they're pretty hard to come by no matter the site.

Just some things to note so you are aware Smilie
